I want to use numbers and letters in the "collection number".  It will not except anything but numbers.  Is there a way to enter "example" 1A or 2B?

I have used DVD Profiiler for years but never tried to enter anything but numbers.  I created a second database and had a need to add Alphanumeric to the collection number.

Can this be done?

You could look at the personal information (Ctrl&p) and use "Location" or "Slot" for that (if not already used for something else), both can hold alphanumerics.

Or have a look at Collection Categories, with them you might not need alphas in the collection number but simply have another set for the Category.

You could also add a big number to the second set, e.g. "8000" so that they stand out and sort together, or one collectiom odd and the other even. Kind of a pain, but it could work.
Thanks for your support.
